* This is an introductory text aimed specifically at students.
* Thematic approach, rather than country by country.
* Single author - many comparative books on industrial relations are collections of individually written chapters, loosely held together by the word "comparative".
* There is increasing prominence given to international aspects in Human Resource Management study schemes. This book offers a 'way in' to the now extensive literature.
* The issue of globalization and the power of transnational companies are addressed. There is scrutiny and appraisal of the proposals that have been made for minimum standards clauses in international trade.
